My Dad had a bike with a sidecar 20+ years ago. It was Russian make, Ural I believe. I rode with him ONCE. Never again. Driving it wasn’t bad but it definitely too a little getting used to, especially when making right turns.
"Apathy is the Glove into Which Evil Slips It's Hand", but really, who cares?
In the wind,wasn’t that a section in the easy rider magazine?There used to be a big hairy ponytail wearing biker that lived around here and I would always read his magazines. I showed them boys how to cook whole pigs over hickory coals and they showed me HA crank,didn’t have to worry about going to sleep and the fire going out.haha
That side car is plain old nostalgia… But there is no substitute for having your lady behind you hanging on. I sold my last bike 12 years ago, got boring riding by myself after my friends quit riding and then the complete issue with other drivers not looking out for ya. Had to hit the grass headed to Bennits Point due to a jack arse in my lane not paying attention. Close call and claw marks in my side from the wife.
I did take my buddies CR250 for a little ride about a month ago… Talk about an adrenaline rush. Cat Walked it a bit and got some laughs out of a few friends that though I couldn’t ride.
OTC, ya gotta remember to post some pics when you get it.
The Ural a bada$$ bike. You can get them in two-wheel drive. Google their videos. There was one here in Greenville on Craigslist a 06 for $4,300 bucks. It’s sold quick. I was too slow or I would have had it.
I need a good pig picking.can’t tell you the last time I seen the sun come up partying. We’re getting old.

He’s in Greer 20 minutes down the road from where I’m working. So I’ll get to go by while it’s being built. Like a kid waiting for Christmas.
